ITEM 3:100 Avenida Del Sol
Building Permit B05-0269
Review of building permit to modify parking lot and potentially reduce the number of
spaces to meet the requirements for disabled accessibility.
Pursuant to Section 29.10.155(M) of the Town Code, the Development Review Committee
determined that if the number of required parking spaces need to be reduced to meet disabled
accessibility requirements pursuant to Title 24 requirements, this reduction would be permitted since
the public necessity for disabled-accessible parking spaces outweighs the need for the number of
required spaces.
ADJOURNMENT Meeting adjourned at 9:20 A.M. The next regularly scheduled
